Marc POULIOT
By Frank HOWARD, Tuesday, September 27, 2005, Page A20
Officer and gentleman. Born May 30, 1955, in Magog, Quebec Died April 1 in Ottawa of a heart attack, aged 49.
The death of a good man always comes too soon.
So it was for Brigadier-General Marc POULIOT, who died suddenly one afternoon in April.
Marc was at the top of his form that sunny spring day when he collapsed outside National Defence Headquarters in Ottawa. Earlier that noon-hour, he had kissed Jennifer, his wife and the mother of their two young daughters; and they parted. It was their last embrace.
There was nothing to prepare Marc's family and Friends for the brutal news that he had collapsed and that attempts to revive him on the spot and in an ambulance had failed.
It was so unfair, many who knew him said. His death seemed a frightful waste.
But Marc's life was not a waste. Marc was an over-achiever of the very best kind, the kind that strives and achieves without fanfare, show or self-aggrandizing.
He had, at that time in his life, received many of the rewards one hopes will come for a life well-lived.
He had been recently decorated for his latest success, Operation Athena, the opening of a Canadian base in Afghanistan. He had also been promoted this year to Brigadier-General.
In many ways he represented much that is fine in Canada.
A man of great tact, he could deal with difficult human encounters with quiet good-humour and equanimity. This was never better demonstrated than in his tour of duty near Kabul, where he dealt with the often-conflicting interests of local authorities, warlords and North Atlantic Treaty Organization allies.
Using local labour, he completed the mission on time and on budget with a base that was secure, and located near an appropriate exit route in case of the mission's failure. All of this was done at a time when the German contingent that preceded the Canadians was confined to barracks because of terrorist threats.
Major-General Andrew LESLIE, in his eulogy at the military funeral in Ottawa's Christ Church Cathedral, gave a measure of Marc's diplomatic and administrative skills on this mission. At the ceremony handing over the base to the operations team, Gen. LESLIE said, he was approached by a warlord who wanted to borrow Marc, who was then a colonel.
Gen. LESLIE had to decline the request.
Born and educated in Quebec, Marc worked with ease in both French and English. He had been with the Canadian Armed Forces since 1972. He served overseas with distinction in the former Yugoslavia, the Middle East and latterly, Afghanistan. He was the recipient of a Canadian Forces Decoration.
In 2003, he was chosen to command Operation Athena in Afghanistan. For this work he received the Governor-General's Meritorious Service Medal. Happily, his father Marcel was an invited guest at Rideau Hall for the presentation -- it was one of their last meetings.
His funeral was a solemn event during which his military comrades, family and Friends paid their respects.
And there was the eulogy by his brother-in-law Nicholas TRUDEL, who read the text of a love note written by his sister Jennifer when her husband Marc was in Kabul.
It was found in Marc's daybook. Translated, it read: "It is hard to say goodbye -- so I say: See you soon. It is hard to wake up lonely and without you -- so I keep you close in my heart and in my thoughts always. It is hard to believe that we will be separated yet again -- so I don't believe it and know you are here. It is hard to need someone so much -- to need you when you are so far away, but in my heart I can still kiss you ever so tenderly.
"Come back to me soon my love."
Frank HOWARD is Marc's stepfather-in-law.

Charged, tried, acquitted, killed
Nate Dawg 'lived by gun, died by gun'
Had threatened a key Crown witness
By Dale Anne FREED and Nick PRON, Staff Reporters
Nathanial " Nate Dawg" LESLIE may have dodged a murder rap two months ago, but he couldn't duck the bullets that snuffed out his life outside a west-end strip club early yesterday morning.
Homicide detectives are looking at revenge as a possible motive in the slaying of the 23-year-old wannabe gangsta rapper, who died in a hail of bullets after narrowly avoiding two other recent murder attempts.
Three weeks ago, a gunman peppered a bus shelter at King St. W. and Dufferin St. with shots but missed LESLIE.
It's believed LESLIE had armed himself and did some shooting of his own at those hunting him, a police source said.
His death came in the midst of a city-wide spasm that saw three homicides in less than 24 hours. A woman was stabbed to death on Wednesday night in a home near Finch Ave. E. and Brimley Rd., while a man was killed yesterday afternoon near Jane St. and Finch Ave. W.
LESLIE had been warned by his lawyer, Friends and police to get out of town after he was acquitted of second-degree murder in the February 2003, killing of Bruce PANCHO at a Yorkville nightclub, Friends said.
"He knew he was going to die," one said. "He knew he was targeted for death from the moment he was acquitted."
LESLIE had at least two close calls in the 60 days of freedom following his release from custody after the trial. But his luck ran out on Wednesday at about 2: 30 a.m. in front of the House of Lancaster, on Bloor St. W. near Lansdowne Ave. He was shot "numerous times" in the stomach by an unknown gunman, who then disappeared into the night, police said.
The police officers who patrolled the west-end area weren't surprised by his slaying.
"You live by the gun, you die by the gun. It's street justice," one officer said.
During his trial, jurors were never told that LESLIE had threatened a key Crown witness, a lifelong acquaintance of his who was standing just a few metres away when PANCHO, a stranger, was shot in the chest after he accidentally bumped into LESLIE on the dance floor.
Even the judge at his trial seemed to think LESLIE was guilty, saying while jurors were out of the courtroom that the key witness had "compelling evidence" LESLIE was the shooter.
LESLIE was also a suspect in two other murders, sources told the Toronto Star. He was also suspected of assaulting several inmates at the Toronto (Don) Jail.
Jail spokesperson Chris CROISIER said LESLIE had been carrying a switchblade at the jail but eventually handed it over when confronted by guards.
LESLIE's death has brought a "strange kind of relief" to the mother of the man he was acquitted of slaying, she said in an interview last night.
"I lost my child and it hurt me from the bottom of my heart," Georgia DUFFUS said. "My justice comes from God. I don't want to say this is justice because I feel really awful. I don't want to seem as if I'm rejoicing.
"When I walked from that courthouse without getting any justice (after LESLIE's acquittal,) I felt crushed, like I was let down by the system," she said.
"I feel sorry for his family members, his grandmother and his father, who were there throughout court."
The▲ lawyer who represented LESLIE at his trial, Laurence COHEN, was visibly shaken by the slaying, saying he was aware of the threats against his client. COHEN told jurors that the case against LESLIE was one of mistaken identity.
"This is just another senseless act of violence," COHEN said yesterday. "My condolences to his family. He had a lot of people who cared for him."
Despite his apparent penchant for violence, LESLIE died without a criminal record, although he had been in some minor trouble as a juvenile. The murder rap had been the first criminal charge against him.
Acquaintances said he could be kind and considerate, with a lively sense of humour. But on the street, LESLIE was known as a violent man with a "short fuse" who usually carried a gun. He also had a penchant for writing violent rap lyrics -- once singing on a Toronto radio show.
One song he penned -- found in his pocket when he was arrested read in part:
They say I'm armed and dangerous
And known to kill strangers.
So do not approach
Cause you'll probably get smoked.
The▲ Crown attorney's office had discussed appealing LESLIE's acquittal on the murder charge but decided against it, said prosecutor Kerry Hughes.
"It's very rare that a jury acquittal is appealed," she said.
LESLIE dropped out of high school and, although he never had a job, he always had money, buying a $150 bottle of champagne on the night PANCHO was slain, his trial heard.
Friends say he fathered two children, with two different women, living with one or the other while he was selling drugs.
He had a "Day One" tattoo on his right forearm and "Gangsta" tattooed on his left forearm. He had been known to carry a 9-mm Walther P38 semi-automatic handgun tucked into his waistband.
Friends▲ describe LESLIE as being blasé about the threats against him during the last two months of his life. One recalled him saying: "I'm trying to get my computer back from the cops. Oh, by the way, someone just took a shot at me."
Although he knew he was a marked man, LESLIE told Friends he didn't want to leave the Parkdale area, where he had lived all of his life.
When he was the target of a massive manhunt in the PANCHO slaying, complete with wanted posters on newspaper boxes, LESLIE remained in Parkdale, sleeping in different places almost every night, a friend said.
"He knew if he was seen on the streets, he would be dead. He went the way he wanted to go."
A second man, described by police as an associate of LESLIE's, was wounded in the shooting, and found nearby, on the west sidewalk of Margueretta St. He was taken to St. Michael's Hospital, where he underwent surgery and is expected to recover, police said.
One neighbour said she heard a woman screaming just before the shooting. Bullets were sprayed everywhere. One hit the porch roof of a house part way down Margueretta St.
Police were on the scene within minutes, the resident of the house said.
"I saw two guys lying on the ground. I heard people screaming. I saw the cops, the firefighters."
Police sources said beer bottles from inside the House of Lancaster were collected yesterday to obtain fingerprints.
